If you divide the number of Star Wars by the number of years in the universe there really hasn't been that many

Leia and Luke and death Vader are all prequel characters in Disney/Lucasfilm movies Oh also bail organa. And that's just superficial characters . As has also been mentioned the new movies contain space ships and Jedi and sith and laser swords and all of these things are in the prequels .

Bongo Bill posted:Hosnian is the capital of the Republic but it isn't the home of the defunct Jedi Order. It's only half of Coruscant, but the other half isn't relevant to that particular film. Right the Jedi half got moved to a lonely island on a plant with no modern buildings which is interesting symbolic change to show how the Jedi order has changed Coruscant was destroyed but the Jedi temple survived and moved to an lonely ocean island planet which shows how the Jedi went from being an urban and urbane order of warrior monks in the corrupt heart of the universe to a isolated island order of ruins and a crazy old monk. Somewhat similar to the original trilogy showing the Jedi order being a lonely old man in the desert and a lonely old man in the jungle .

First movie the Jedi are centered on a desert ascetic Next two the Jedi are centered in a jungle ascetic Then for the next three they are centered in a city pyramid literally above the clouds talking to each other through spirit vision So it's cool that in he 7th movie the go back to asceticism , this time in the ocean . A lonely island. Or maybe it was a small archipelago

Tfa felt rushed because that's just how Abrams does his movies imho . They are frantic . I didn't notice any lack of production quality which you may get when a movie is actually rushed .

There is a source document where Lucas describes in detail his directorial goal for the actors you know. It's not just people guessing about intentions .

I can't find the PDF but Lucas states that was intended as an homage to the pulp movies upon which Star Wars is based . Homage is the wrong word , but staying true to the genre .

Bongo Bill posted:I love the repeated gag of R2 falling behind in one shot, then in a subsequent shot he's caught up again and falls behind again, repeatedly. I'll be watching for it when I rewatch The Empire Strikes Back this weekend. Also In Jabbas palace it's never clear how he maneuvers the stairs TFA has a funny reference to this .

I mean luke calls them laser swords and then efficiently summarizes the "Jedi are bad" argument from the prequels. I was so happy.
